Replacing the Battery Pack
CAUTION:
z There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace the
battery only with the computer manufacturer’s optional battery packs. Discard used
batteries according to the dealer’s instructions.
z Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack.
If you often rely on battery power for a long period of time while
traveling, you may consider the purchase of an additional battery pack
from your dealer and keep it with you in a fully charged state as a backup.
To replace the battery pack, follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the computer is not turned on or connected to AC
power.
2. Locate the battery compartment on the right side of the computer.
3. Open the compartment cover by pressing on both sides of the release
latch using your thumb and index fingers.
